I seem to have misplaced



Recommended Posts

I've only just crossed over that weight threshold where real changes are happening to the body itself; I'm 73 lbs down and recently went on R&R (vacation). I was eager to go to my favorite lingerie boutique back home to see what new size I would wear; I adore this shop, it is in a tiny coastal town that still relies on the JC Penny catelog delivery, and gives the local women some femininity, quality, and glamour.

Well, after an hour of trying on bras, I was really frustrated. The bras I had were 40DDD and 42 DDD. Clearly the 42s were out, and maybe the 40s too. Also, the Triple Ds were definitely out, but was I in just a single D?!! Turns out - not that simple. =( All this emtpy surplus pudding-skin distorted the shape of my breasts, and my side-boob-fat is now floppy and refuses to tuck away quietly. =( =(

I ended up buying 38Ds in my favorite brand (Lunaire) but I think I should have bought 40 DDs because now it is an upsetting chore to tuck and tamp down all the pudding skin. =(

I am going on bra and panty spree this week I hope. I know this is crazy because I am still 90 lbs for goal. However at 5 feet 4 inches I weighed 267 pounds on surgery day. My bra was a 46 H cup. I have brought out the old bras of a 42 DDD and they are a little big so I am going to go get measured so I know what to get. I don't miss my girls but my husband is thinking they are getting a little small. He is very supportive but he is a boob man after all!!!! I am with you girls I will get new boobs when I reach goal!!!!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
